The working principle of the invention is as follows:
The explosion-proof coupler firstly needs to meet the design requirement of an intrinsic safety circuit and prevent surge influence, so that two series capacitors are needed, the single capacitance is not more than 340pF, and the test voltage meets 1500V. In addition, the shape of the metal connector connected with the PCB 3 can also influence signal attenuation, and compared with a square connector, the symmetrical round connector 1 can reduce the insertion loss of the coupler by 2-4%. For preventing surge and shielding grounding isolation, a comprehensive shielding isolation grounding circuit is required to be made in the circumferential direction of the PCB 3, and the signal attenuation can be greatly reduced by making the comprehensive shielding isolation grounding circuit in the circumferential direction of the PCB 3. The comparison test shows that the complete shielding isolation grounding circuit in the circumferential direction of the PCB 3 can reduce the insertion loss of the coupler by 11-15%. Therefore, the four-pin 2 design is required for the coupler connector, the PCB 3 is inserted into the middle of the four-pin 2 for installation, the back of the PCB 3 is covered by a copper cladding plate, and the PCB is welded and connected with the two pins 2. The signal circuit is made to PCB board 3 openly centre, establishes ties two electric capacity, and signal circuit copper sheathing board adopts the copper sheathing board that satisfies high-frequency transmission, and thickness is greater than 60um, and the width is greater than 3mm, and the isolation earthing circuit is made to PCB board 3 openly both sides, and earthing circuit must be greater than 3.3mm with signal circuit's creepage distance.
An insulating PC board is arranged on the front surface of the PCB, the height of the PC board is lower than that of the two pins 2 of the connector, and a reverse U-shaped white copper board 4 is arranged on the pins 2 of the circular connector 1 so as to circumferentially shield, isolate and ground the PCB. The PCB 3 is also made of high-frequency insulating board. Meanwhile, the voltage withstand of the signal circuit and the shell is 1500v, and the minimum creepage distance is required to be 3.3mm. The potting adhesive is used as an important packaging medium for connecting the main signal circuit, shielding and isolating the grounding circuit and the metal shell, and high-purity high-insulation high-frequency epoxy adhesive is still required to be adopted to meet the requirements of attenuation, pressure resistance and surge prevention.
According to the design requirements, the connection joint of the tested circuit board can meet the extremely good value that the 6GHz attenuation is not more than 0.8dB at the ring temperature of 20 ℃ and can pass the anti-surge requirement.

It also enables direct removal of the antenna in hazardous areas due to the limited energy circuitry. And can be matched with different types of connection joints, is simple and convenient to install, and is a highly flexible, economical and efficient solution for wireless network deployment in dangerous areas.
